Buckley Rivers a Miracle to Double
Niveau 31
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Mark Buckley shoved from the cutoff for 3,005,000. When it folded to Sean Hegarty in the big blind, he took one look at his cards and flicked in the call to put Buckley at risk.
Mark Buckley: A♣5♥ 
Sean Hegarty: A♥K♠
Buckley was dominated and looked poised to be headed for the rail. The 10♥6♥4♠ didn't change anything but Buckley did have some backdoor draws. The 2♣ turn gave him a gutshot, but the 5♦ river improved Buckley to a pair of fives. Buckley doubled up while Hegarty was left as the table short-stack.
